Question 1

How much water per flush is recommended? How many days of one person using it for mostly "solids" would it work for?

Accepted Answer

Well this unit holds about 5 gallons of water, each flush is less then quater of gallon depending how many times you pump to dispose the waste. 1 to 3 flushes should do it. It has a decent pressure, not like a real toilet but enough to clean the bowl. I took it with me camping and I had three females ranging from 7 and 34 years,  of age. Believe it or not I only had to dispose the waste every two to three days depending on use.

Question 2

Can this be emptied into your residential toilet?  I had one in a popup camper that you could empty the cassette in a regular toilet.

Accepted Answer

I realize this is a couple years old question but since the item is still for sale, I decided to answer. Yes you "can" empty it in your home toilet but even using the toilet chemicals to deodorize and break down waste, it can REALLY stink up your bathroom, not to mention what it can do to your stomach trying to get this done before you barf. I learned fast the best way to empty this is in the RV dump at most campgrounds, or even some gas stations have one you can use free. We're lucky and have one near our house, but we've also emptied it at the campground dump. If you're in a site that has full hookups, you can also dump it in the sewage right there at your site.

Question 3

I have a room above my barn that will sleep 4 for a week.  I am thinking of installing this in an extra stall probably for night use.   Thoughts?

Accepted Answer

With limited use (ie, "#1 only") it would probably be ok, but, this would depend upon the "quantity" of liquid that is added.  Definitely worth trying, tho!

Question 4

how deep is the bowl

Accepted Answer

6" from top (bottom edge of seat) to deepest point (where the trap opens to empty into reservoir - circumference of this deepest part of bowl is approx 3.5" and depth about 2") and then approx 4" deep in the actual "bowl" if that makes sense!
